Bologna is a beautiful city, famous for its arcades, its cuisine and the ancient University. It is now a multicultural center with a modern and relaxed lifestyle. It is pleasant to walk in search of the hidden corners of Bologna, both in the day and in the evening, From the apartment you can walk to everything, to the main monuments (the Due Torri, Piazza Maggiore, the Basilica of San Petronio) as well as museums, cinemas and theaters (the “Teatro Comunale”, famous for the Opera season, is just 10 minutes’ walk). In Via Rivareno you will find every kind of shop (old grocery store, bakery, butcher, hairdresser, ...) and the adjacent via Indipendenza is one of the most interesting streets for shopping. The area is also full of typical restaurants serving the traditional “CUCINA BOLOGNESE” (some of which are historical!), pubs, pizzerias, bars and delicious ice cream shops.

I will be extremely happy to share with you all my knowledge of the city and to help you in making your stay in Bologna unforgettable!

CURIOSITY:
The fine staircase of the palace is decorated with statues of Wisdom, Fortitude and Prudence by Angelo G. Piò, a famous sculptor of the XVIII century. The building originally overlooked the Reno Channel, artificially created along with others channel across the city in the XII century to connect Bologna with the river Po and to provide the factories with water and mechanical energy. Unfortunately, the channel was covered by the road at the beginning of the XX century; it is possible to organize a visit to the hidden channel system.
